Ockham’s Razor
Pluralitas Non Est Ponenda Sine Necessitate…
“Entities should not be multiplied needlessly”
- William of Ockham, 14th Century
Ockham’s Razor is a principle of logic and philosophy credited to William of Ockham, a Franciscan friar from the fourteenth century. What does this law of parsimony mean from an investment perspective? And what does this mean for your investments? Let OWA show you.
